PhD Opportunity—Hygro-thermo-mechanical Analysis of Layered Composites

Overview.Two full-time PhD positions on "Hygro-thermo-mechanical Analysis of Layered Composites" are available. The successful candidate will be working within a team to develop analytical/numerical solutions for the hygrothermal response of composites or similar layered products. The main idea is to work on orthotropic layers stacked arbitrarily.

Minimum Requirements.High GPA (>85%) and a track record of high quality relevant publications (minimum one first-author journal paper).

Desired background.Composites; Continuum Mechanics and/or Computational Mechanics (Numerical Methods and FEA)

Location.Griffith University, Gold Coast Campus, Australia.

Application.Please send the followings to z.javanbakht at griffith.edu.au:

1. CV
2. Transcripts
3. One selected best paper
4. An email with the title of "HDR Application, Timber" that contains one paragraph (200 words max) indicating
   • the relevance of your skills and motivation
   • contribution of the applicant to the selected paper

Response.There is no need for follow up emails once your application is received, you will receive an email by the end of August. Incomplete applications will not be considered.
